Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    The Department of Commerce will submit to the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) for clearance the following proposal for collection of 
information under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act.
    Agency: U.S. Census Bureau.
    Title: Public Employment & Payroll Forms.
    OMB Control Number: 0607-0452.
    Form Number(s): E-1, E-2, E-3, E-4, E-5, E-6, E-7, E-8, E-9, E-10.
    Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Number of Respondents: 16,357.
    Average Hours per Response: 50 minutes.
    Burden Hours: 13,614.
    Needs and Uses: The Census Bureau's Public Employment & Payroll 
Program, consisting of a Census of Governments: Employment Phase 
(conducted every 5 years in years ending in 2 and 7) and the related 
Annual Survey of Public Employment & Payroll (conducted in the 
intervening years), provides a rich source of data on state and local 
government employment and payroll in the United States. The survey 
provides state and local government data on full-time and part-time 
employment, part-time hours worked, full-time equivalent employment, 
and payroll statistics by governmental function (e.g., elementary and 
secondary education, higher education, police protection, fire 
protection, financial administration, central staff services, judicial 
and legal, highways, public welfare, etc.).
    This request is for clearance of the forms and procedures to be 
used in conducting the 2019, 2020 and 2021 Annual Survey of Public 
Employment & Payroll.
    The users of the Public Employment and Payroll Program data include 
Federal agencies, state and local governments and related 
organizations, public interest groups, and many business, market, and 
private research organizations. The Census Bureau provides these 
employment data to the Bureau of Economic Analysis for constructing the 
functional payrolls in the public sector of the Gross Domestic Product; 
payroll being the single largest component of current operations. The 
public employment and payroll data are also used in reimbursable 
programs conducted by the Census Bureau for other Federal agencies such 
as: (1) The government portion of the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey 
commissioned by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality to 
provide timely, comprehensive information about health care use and 
costs in the United States, and (2) the Criminal Justice Expenditure 
and Employment Survey, sponsored by the Bureau of Justice Statistics 
(BJS), which provides criminal justice expenditure and employment data 
on spending and personnel levels.
    Affected Public: State, local or tribal governments.
    Frequency: Annually.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    Legal Authority: Title 13, U.S.C., Sections 161 and 182.
    This information collection request may be viewed at 
www.reginfo.gov. Follow the instructions to view Department of Commerce 
collections currently under review by OMB.
    Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information 
collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice 
to [email protected] or fax to (202)395-5806.
